My interpretation is that someting removes the use-flags "device-mapper" and "net" and all DRACUT_MODULES are removed completely although the following options are set:

From /etc/portage/package use:

Quote:

[...]
sys-kernel/dracut device-mapper net
[...]

From /etc/portage/make.conf:

Quote:

[...]
DRACUT_MODULES="biosdevname lvm nfs syslog"
[...]

Will dracut --- without these use-flags and modules --- will still be able to create an initramfs with lvm on board? (/usr is on lvm, so this is needed for booting)

TIA
vrm

BTW (1): Yes, i know, that for systemd the systemd-flag shoud be set for dracut, when running systemd. But, i'am unsure, if I really want to makte this step away from openrc. I haven't found out yet, if all running services, which i want and are needed, are properly supported. For example I didn't find a .servive-file for net-nntp/inn or cyrus-imapd.
